    OH MY GOD. This game is so full of trash i don´t know anymore what Battlefield has become.
    I purchased the game a few days ago and played multiplayer but after excluding 5 game modes i can only see 6 active servers. So game is dead for at least half of the game modes and they still sell it.
    The servers are infested with cheaters. The game itself is awful & boring. The aiming feels

    The servers are infested with cheaters.
    The game itself is awful & boring. The aiming feels wrong. The hit registration is a joke. People are jumping and zipping across the battlefield like they are about to escape bullets.
    Gameplay is way too fast to be a battlefield.
    And then the singleplayers campaign. Holy cow. It is full of bugs even afters years. I had to restart some missions multiple times to unstuck myself or NPCs.
    No No No. Then i rage quit and uninstalled the game.
    The last amazing battlefield was Battlefield Bad Company 2 & Battiefield 2142 was refreshing but both were too successful so they never did a Sequel. BF 3 trash, BF 4 trash, BF 5 trash.
    The only good thing is that i got a refund even after like 10 hours playing.

    19 Things Battlefield V is Doing Wrong and How the Franchise Can Return to its Roots

    1. assigment now are really annoying(was made automatically on previous games)
    2.Upgdrade system look REALLY BAD....BF4s system(attachments) was better(best)
    3.Q chat since bf1 is annoying. On ALL other bf game was faster(1click needed and with letters)
    4.Fancy Interface is really bad with big icons(filters for servers have sub filters etc) who the hell did that? (probably the guy that made the new look of ORIGIN
    5. Dedicated servers must come back(for sure)
    6. Side walking and infantry movements must be slow down(its more like battlefront now)
    7. Number of tanks and vehicles per round must be increased
    8. Vehicles must be more fun and with less realism
    9. Hardcore at launch.... or made 1mode same as BF2(no kill cams no health regenarate etc)
    10.Hardcore mode same as BF4
    11. Create more gadgets and guns like in bf4 for the game(in 1 day i can suggest you a ton of them even in ww2 era.... believe me)
    12. Make squad bigger and not smaller....who the hell had the idea of 4 squad members??
    13. Battlelog for PC players
    14. You must be able to explore on empty CQ map
    15. You must be able to change team at the begining of a round
    16. You must bring back the old class system FOR SURE... revives only by medic-be able to have you favourite class while in a vehicle.....NO VEHICLE classes etc ....make it simple as always was in epic previous games BF2+BF3+BC2+BF4 etc etc
    17. Bring back the old chat
    18.Death scene was(waiting for so long) the most annoying thing ever added in bf
    19 rrepairing vehicles from inside is awful

    Is too late for bfv to be saved but Its not too late to save the franchise....the only game im playing after work is Battlefield and i feel that i will stick to bf4 for ever
    From bf1942 to BF4 all games had a similar feeling....since BF hardline the franchise going downhill :(

    An Excellent skiing simulator. NO joke, Dice/EA should just give up Battlefield and make a skiing simulator. Those few minutes in the single player campaign while skiing was just so much fun.

    Same BF gameplay since BF3, epic graphics @ Nvidia GF RTX but I give it a score of no more than four out of ten for all that marxist BS they served in terms of the story. One simply does not mess with the essence and facts of WW2. They even included Marx portraits ingame. The DICE developers should get a serious treatment before its too late for them.

    This is a Garbage Fire dressed up as a Battlefield game. This is the M.Night version of Battlefield. This is the version made by a blind man with a hammer and nails.

    There are much worse games on the market at the moment, but this is just more of the same. It's a battlefield asset flip, no variety or challenges. If this is the first shooter you have ever played, you will enjoy it, but if you have played the other battlefield games, theres nothing new here.

    I hope that they are going to remake BC2 on this engine and revive MOH if they want to do a game similar to COD. You must not change a franchise in order to compete with another game(you already had MOH)

    But like i said, save you some time and money and skip this game. We can ask for a finished game but we can do this together.
    I score this game a 1 (because i like the graphics)

    Verdict:
    I love Battlefield games and it has always been my favorite online shooter franchise, but in the recent years the quality of these games have dropped dramatically. I blame the EA for this quality drop, because they don't give DICE enough time to develop their games, but instead they're forced to put out one new game each year. 1 year is simply not enough to make a good, high quality game and its showing here in the Battlefield 5.

    (at least I didn't pay for that, as I won a "community" (which of I don't feel to be a part, hehe) competition for voice acting. I am rather skilled in that, it was a nice experience to be involved in the recordings for the AAA title, but the game is still bad af.)

    This game has only two pros: gunfights are great, graphics are great (even though there's some step backwards after BF1 eye candy realism).

    Anything else about this game is just awful, from women screaming like pigs on farm, to terrible music that annoys you more than drives into battle. No footsteps, no spots, you basically have no info and have to camp or play with squad if you have

    Anything else about this game is just awful, from women screaming like pigs on farm, to terrible music that annoys you more than drives into battle. No footsteps, no spots, you basically have no info and have to camp or play with squad if you have one. Overall balance is lacking. Game is not polished yet. It's overall more grindey than it was in previous series. Marketing was total **** I played my first 2 hours ever (besides beta trial) and already ran into 2 hackers lmao.

    There are only two proper ways to play this game:
    1) try it with Origin Basic Access (yes they moved it there after 6 months of release...lol), it will be 7 days free trial, or like 4,99$/m
    2) buy it on really HUGE sale, like 70-80% one, and when it's polished and done

    Otherwise this game is just not worth it, would recommend BF4/BF1 every single time over this one.

Про сюжет промолчу, про баги тоже, про советский союз тоже промолчу, это останется у разработчиков на совести, но над сетевой составляющей могли бы и получше поработать и допилить до идеала. Казуальная стрельба, скудный набор оружия. К покупке строго не рекомендую. Отзывы людей реальны и дальнейшая судьба DICE зависит от следующей игры, если она так же не оправдает надежды, это будет конец. BF 3 и 4 forever. Expand

    Faction based guns, old school weapons, vehicles that can't be taken on very easily by foot soldiers. Recycled maps and no real anti-cheat system equal another epic EA game failure. EA has been making failure Battlefield games for about 4 years now. Time to realize you are losing your core players... Will not be risking my $$ on the next one until its a bargain price, canceled Origin Access too.

    It’s far from being ideal but all the glitches and shortcomings don’t ruin the overall fun of Battlefield V’s multiplayer experience. Although the single player portion of the game is not bad at all, I would have been disappointed if I bought the game just for it. [13/2018, p.56]

    In Battlefield V we got back to WW2, but with refined gunplay and death system which works great. There are also little problems such as low number of maps and stability issues, that are taking the fun away, but nothing that can't be fixed.

    A great World War II shooter that will grow and improve. Do not buy the game because of its singleplayer, but if you consider the campaign a bonus to the multiplayer, you will be satisfied. [Issue#291]
